Modeling interporosity flow for improved simulation of naturally fractured reservoirs.
(2002)
Results from the numerical examples presented in this study indicate that the physical phenomena considered in the present model would predict shorter water breakthrough times and less oil recovery from the matrix, compared ...
Dual-porosity approach to wellbore stability in naturally fractured reservoirs.
(2002)
The naturally fractured reservoir was treated as a dual-porosity medium consisting of the primary rock matrix system and the fractured system. Assuming the matrix and fractures in the fractured medium to be 'separate and ...
Laboratory imaging of hydraulic fractures using microseismicity.
(2002)
Developing robust algorithms and software for locating the coordinates of hydraulic fracturing-induced microseismic events, and for simulating the first motion of the induced waveforms were central tasks for this research. ...
Production performance of horizontal wells in gas-condensate reservoirs.
(2002)
Gas condensate reservoirs go under two kinds of changes in their lifetime. The phase change and the physical properties change. Both the changes have been handled in this study using the pseudopressure function integral ...
Application of PEBI grid simulation to analyze pressure-transient behavior of hydraulically fractured vertical wells.
(2002)
Because of their flexibility while handling non-orthogonal systems, in this study, PEBI grids, implemented in a commercial simulator were employed to solve the mathematical models. However, it was first necessary to study ...
Anisotropic poromechanics of the wellbore coupled with thermal and chemical gradients.
(2002)
A generalized anisotropic porothermoelastic formulation incorporating fully coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical response of saturated porous media is developed. Governing equations are tailored for transversely isotropic media ...
